Hair clips

It has been awhile since I've sat down and poked around in my ever growing jewelry stash. Lately, I've just been buying pieces and tossing them in several large plastic bins. Its going to be like the best Christmas ever going through those bins once I get some free time! I recently got a request to decorate two hair clips with some bling, and to keep them both predominately silver. This one has a fun vintage feel with the addition of the pearls~Sweet little pink flowers really make this one a flirty fun piece to wear.Keeping in mind that these can't be very heavyso as not to pull your hair out, I glued on a double strip of fabric backed rhinestones to build upon to get the finished results.I like how they turned out, I hope the person I made them for likes them too.... if not, give them back. *wink*

Very Pretty - you did good !! You will have fun digging thru your stash of bling. I spent some time the last couple of days going thru some things I acquired recently and picking out what I can use/repurpose.Enjoy your evening.

I am a mixed media artist. I love to sew, embroider, crochet and create things using vintage objects. I love: old classic cars, vintage fabrics, old buttons, cats, shabby chic furniture & linens.... chewing gum, diet pepsi, sneakers, chocolate and gardening~ I like to rummage through thrift stores, yard sales, estate sales and the occasional curbside trash pile. I don't mind getting dirty for treasures! I like to repurpose found objects throughout my home and garden.
